I've got 4 and I think I'm stopping there. It's a nice figure, but the helmets on mine look kind of warped. I've got at least 20 VOTC and a bunch of Tantive ones, so I don't have a burning need for more.

Um, I know you're helping me with Rebel Honor Guards, but if you could also hook me up with Stormtroopers too... Please let me know. (and AOTC Clones.) Yeah I know, I'm asking a lot....Thanks for the help you've already given me as well as any future help.

I'm just a humble collector trying to make his way through the universe...of toy aisles."We are strong. We are resilient. We are American." - President Barack Obama, State of the Union Address 2010

I bought two of these, although I don't know why, seeing as I have over a hundred Comm-Tech stormies (I know the new sculpts are vastly superior, but a guy really only needs so many stormtroopers, you know?). I opened one last night, and the weirdest thing happened. Within minutes of taking him out of the package, the helmet started turning pink. It was really slight at first, so much that I thought there was some weird light coming in the window or something. But after a few minutes, the thing was very clearly pink.

Anyone else experience this on this or other figures? Is there a way of reversing it? I thought about sticking it in some bleach or hydrogen peroxide, but thought I'd check in here first.

It sucks because I was planning on letting these guys go helmetless, and to use the helmets with the comic book Han and Luke. I want to remove the baby blue hues to the comic pack stormies, but now that I've got a pink helmet to go with the powder blue detailing, I may shoot for a 501st PRIDE parade brigade or something.

It sounds to me that you had some kind of oil or some other substance on your fingers when you opened it. Either that or the last batch of mushrooms you ate were the silly kind. Probably the former, but with you li...lib...liber (you know)....you never know.

Interesting idea, but you should build a grand clone army to accompany your rainbow brigade of stormies. Clones with fushcia highlights, you know. And I just happen to know a customizer on these boards who I'm sure would enjoy helping you with such a task. Which brings me to...

Other substance? Like what? Hmm....

Could've been shrooms, or it could've been oxycontin (aka hillbilly heroin). Oh wait, Sprry isn't a ne...neo...neoco...nah, couldn't have been oxy.
